IRCC recently announced plans to revamp the Express Entry system entirely, including replacing the existing economic immigration programs with one Federal High-Skilled Immigration Class and sweeping changes to the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS).
Although public consultations on this have not started yet, we have a source that has given us access to a copy of an Internal IRCC draft discussion paper which provides more details on the proposed Express Entry reforms.
Here's what we know so far.
Key Takeaways
- The proposed eligibility for the Federal High Skill Immigration Program is at least a high school diploma, one year of TEER 0-3 work experience in the last 3 years, and language scores of CLB/NCLC 6.
- Additional CRS points proposed for experience or job offers in high-wage occupations and "practice-ready" candidates in regulated occupations.
- CRS points for French language ability, Canadian college education, spousal factors, and sibling in Canada could be reduced or removed entirely.
- Emphasis will be on selecting candidates with more earnings potential.
